        I can count the number of times I’ve met a cat in a public funded building. It’s zero. A library isn’t some randomly owned house or business, it’s meant as a public resource which everyone should feel comfortable using.

        Is this the hill I die on? No, but that doesn’t mean it’s a pain in the ass for a non trivial amount of people.

          If you have a cat in your local library and it causes issues for people then you should bring it up with them. You’re acting like one singular cat in one singular library where the majority of people wanted the cat is directly and negatively effecting you.

      That is indeed a valid point. But wouldn’t you be willing to die for this adorable little fella ?

        I mean it’s not the hill I die on lol, it’s a minor allergic reaction and I have what I need at home.

        I’m just saying that not wanting a cat in a public funded place isn’t really meme material IMO, is a pretty tame request.

          Not wanting a aninal that can cause allergic reactions in a public place is absolut common sense. This is in part what makes this a good meme, I think.

      You’ll be fine. My girlfriend is a allergic to cats but she’s had one in the house for over a decade now.

      Just admit that the real reason is because you don’t like cats, and being allergic to them is a convenient excuse.
